Football Referee: New Football Video Game Announced

We have some rather interesting news now for those of you that are getting a bit tired of football-related video games such as the FIFA and PES series and perhaps want something a little different; as Footballtainment has just announced that it will be releasing a new PC game called Football Referee.

According to a recent press release over on the gamasutra.com website, the forthcoming Football Referee game – which will be released online and will be free to play – will enable players to take over the role of a referee, and make decisions on scenes that may occur during the course of a football match.

The game will also feature a section called ‘How to Become a Ref,’ which as you can tell by the name provides players with rules and instructions on how to be a referee. The language and gameplay of the Football Referee game, which is said to be based on a trivia system, is quite easy and straightforward.

Some of the key features of Football Referee include the fact that it’s a free to play web-based game, a ‘Be a Ref’ mode, Laws of the Game and the ability to get a referee rating. The game is currently in development, so we don’t have any further details at this stage. Would you play this game, or does it sound boring?
